A trauma sensitive Yoga session may include tailored Yoga movement, breath work, meditation and relaxation techniques presented in a clear, safe and trauma-sensitive way within a Yogic framework. Sessions are created to encourage a feeling of safety in the body and may include techniques to ground, stabilise and self regulation. I teach weekly seated Yoga sessions in senior living villages around Birmingham as part of their dementia and mental health wellbeing team.

Group sessions can be organised via Zoom or in-person. If you are a charity or service in or around Birmingham/North Warwickshire/Solihull/Sutton Coldfield and would like to discuss these sessions please do get in touch via my contact page.

Mentoring for teachers

Do you feel that as a teacher/facilitator you are missing out on your own practice? Are you doubting yourself or struggling with creativity? Sometimes it can be a lonely work life balancing your passion, your home life, being respectful of the teachings and making a living. I will get you thinking, will give you time to practice and explore why and what you are teaching and how to continue (or not) doing what you love.
